Today we began our session by reviewing pennies, dimes and nickels. We then introduced todays' new coins, the quarter and the half dollar. We counted by 1's, 5's, 10's, 25's and 50's. Anna and Quinn then practiced counting a given number of coins. They each completed the lesson5-2 practice worksheet. We finished by finding different ways to make a number. For example, 30 cents can be made using 6 nickels, a quarter and a nickel or 3 dimes. Quinn did very well with todays' lesson. Anna is still struggling a little bit with remembering the amount of each coin.
